Gary Lucas brings his Captain Beefheart Symposium to Mexico City on Sunday 1 December 2013
It takes place in the big public park at the Casa Del Lago at 1pm.
During the symposium Gary Lucas will show rare archival footage of the band, spin unreleased tracks, project slides of Van Vliet’s paintings and drawings, discuss the history of the group and many of the great musicians who came through the ranks of The Magic Band, and illustrate Van Vliet’s quirky and idiosyncratic methodologies and techniques with a live solo guitar performance.
